Estimation of Groundwater Level Variations Using Distributed Model of Inhomogeneous Permeabilities

Abstract

This paper shows a geostatistical performance of estimating the modeling errors for two-dimensional groundwater flow with best model selected by AIC. A variation in the water levels are formulated from the series solution of the FE equation. A hypothetical aquifer into twenty constant-permeability zones is designed to allow assessing the errors and the level variations. Spatial estimation of the error complements and model selection are herein carried out. It can be proven that such estimation and selection are greatly helpful in perfectly modeling at the subsequent time.
